BBDG vs Marcus Brigstocke

The Live at The Apollo and Experion advert star, 52, came into the studio to discuss his life and career. By 17 he was 24 stone and eating out of bins, while also battling a drink problem (using the folds in his belly to hide stolen 4-packs of XXXX). Rehab followed and some rocky years, particularly in his private life as fame and money brought attention from women at a time when men were expected to be men even if it did mean cheating on the misses with a new bit of skirt every weekend.Now married to the most beautiful woman in comedy, Rachel Parris, Brigstocke was in reflective mood as he discussed addiction, new love, 30 years in jokes and the comedy industry in 2025. Ray thinks modern comedians are rubbish, but does Marcus agree? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
